Vlex posted:I'm soliciting advice for adapting this approximate scheme, which is: I think washing it with green would just make it look like a mossy statue. You could try painting the glow directly into the joints, using a thinned darker color for the glow around the area, and a lighter, more intense color in the joint itself?

Vlex posted:Interesting, the darker colour outside the crack goes against my instincts, but makes sense if there's an intense green inside the crack. I mean, I guess it wouldn't be dark green outside, more like a vibrant, lush green? Yeah, I meant darker as in dark-than-the-lightsource dark. Something like Warpstone Green vs. Moot Green for example. I did some rudimentary glow on this guy using thinned Warpstone Green around the flame, with Moot Green on sharp edges where the light would catch, such as the pauldron:  On your model it would be sorta like this (only not 2 min in MS paint )

Torquemada posted:Eyes of the Nine (Tzeench Demons) Sepulchral Guard (ancient skeletons), Thundrik’s Profiteers (steampunk dwarfs), Skaeth’s Wild Hunt (elfy centaurs) and maybe Ironsoul’s Condemnors (a type of Stormcast Eternal). This would give you a ridiculously wide variety of different tones and textures to work on, plus they all snap-fit, so you won’t have to worry about gluing them while you’re deployed. I'd suggest Mollog's Mob as well, he is a nice sleepy boy with cute friends (also he is a bigger model than most of the warbands if you want some variety in size)

I’m bored and playing around with the Impcat app, brainstorming Space Marine schemes. Made one I quite like based on Goliath beetle colors but the perfect color for the weapon eludes me. I tried a few different ones but still not sure:   Any suggestions?

Cat Face Joe posted:I have a bunch of these that have the same branding but they say ink on them. I'm assuming they're a different product? darnon posted:I think it's just a labeling generation thing. I got the set too and they're all labelled as 'Army Painter Quickshade - Ink' even the tones. The newer labeling has 'Washes' in red along the bottom. The colored ink is fairly weak as ink goes, perhaps closer to a glaze. Yeah, as far as I know the Ink label is just the previous generation. Don't know if there's any change in the formula though. The Moon Monster posted:Yeah, the AP Dark Tone (black), Strong Tone (dark brown), Light Tone (light brown), and Flesh Tone washes are a great pick up for anyone who wants to use washes. Don't have any experience with the colored ones but I'd assume they're also good. The only one I've struggled a bit with finding a use for is the Mid Brown, but yesterday I experimented a bit and turns out a few layers on top of Zandri Dust makes a decent skin tone

Drone posted:2.) was very on the fence about using the Flesh Wash as it came out very red after applying and drying... but it was the only brownish wash I had that wasn't Agrax Earthshade, and I didn't want it to be nearly that dark... I like my Deathwing to be very creamy. I think it worked out quite well on the final product though, but next time I would really like to get a nice hazely/coffee color wash somehwere. Any recos? Seraphim Sephia or AP Soft Tone might what you're looking for then. They're both light brown washes

tangy yet delightful posted:Just downloaded the Brushrage app which seems like it could be a useful tool for tracking paints and what paints I'm using for what models etc. Anyone else use this or have a different app they like for painting adjacent stuff? I'm a big fan of the impcat app. It lets you try out paint schemes with base/layer/shade/highlight and gives you an overview of different paint ranges. However, you need to download models (if you want GW models and the like) and paint ranges uploaded by other users since the app only has a small handful of independent sculpts. This also means that the range of models are kinda limited. But it's real good for thinking up space marine schemes.
